Michelle Wie West makes KPMG cut after husband's words of 'wisdom'

JOHNS CREEK, Ga. – After a 5-over 77 on Thursday, Michelle Wie West shot 3-under par 69 on Friday to make the cut on the number at the KMPG Women’s PGA Championship.

She credits her husband Jonnie’s words of wisdom.

“He told me to get my head out of my ass, so I did," Wie West said. "I got my head out of my ass and I played some golf today.”

Two mud balls on the first two holes rattled Wie West, but she still managed a birdie on the par-5 second. She went on to make four birdies in the first seven holes.
